Honestly, there is no exact science to taking a great silhouette image. All you need that you must be on the right time and at the right place. By the way, I just took my first shots silhouette style, by accident when I was at Berjaya Resort Langkawi last weekend.

If there's thing I've learn in my years of exploring images and aircraft during Langkawi Airshow, it is: The more prepared you are, the greater your chances of getting the shot when Lady Luck shows up. I was simply wandering the Mahsuri International Hall earlier, quite taken by the many aircraft, I braced my camera against my chest and quickly fired off multiple shots...

Although, the tarmac gate is still closed, I was lucky enough as my Sigma 70-300mm lense was with me all the times.This is all my favourites aircraft....

Sukhoi SU-30 MKM Royal Malaysian Air Force at the Langkawi International Maritime & Aerospace Exhibition 2011.

One of the most beautiful aircraft in modern world - Dassault Rafale .Few country like India and Malaysia had shortlisted Dassault Rafale in their new budget to buy the aircraft. Many people think Dassault Rafale will have an edge over Eurofighter in the﻿ deal.

Is it﻿ just me or does this thing look extremely similar to the Eurofighter?

C-17 Globemaster.This is my favorite plane of them all, some day﻿ I'll have one! Lol !

F/A 18 Super Hornet. Put a fighter like this in the hands of a U.S. Navy or experience Royal Malaysian Air Force pilot - Game over!

Joyce and her cute Sikorsky helicopter. She been sticking around with me for the past few years and her love for aeronautical continued to grow.

Sikorsky - Designers and builders of the world's most advanced helicopters for commercial, industrial, and military use.

**** Remember -The first step in becoming a hot shot fighter pilot is listening to the oldies.You won’t even get past round one without that, tough guy !

The BAE Systems announced its intention to market the Typhoon as a replacement for the Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) Mikoyan MiG 29N, due to be phased out probably in late 2011. According to them, the Typhoon's multi-role capabilities allow it to replace the MiG-29N.Other contenders include Boeing F/A-18E/F Super Hornet, Boeing F-15 Eagle, Dassault Rafale, JAS 39 Gripen NG, Sukhoi Su-35, and Lockheed F-16C/D Fighting Falcon.

For LIMA 2011, The Eurofighter Typhoon will be flying across the skies of Langkawi for the first time as the RAF aircraft participates in one of the most important global defence and security shows, which takes place in Langkawi, Malaysia, from 6-10 December 2011.

By the way, I was lucky enough to get Trade Visitor access to LIMA and snap photos of these Eurofighter Typhoon !
